That means finding something that changes, but isn't dependent on something else changing it. I would say that time is a non-example. It keeps changing regardless of how other things are changing. (Now, there is an exception to this in physics, where the passage of time changes in relation to velocity, but we're assuming that we are just talking about time as it is typically for us.) Another example would be something like a quantity purchased. Let's say that candy bars cost $ .75 each. The total cost would be dependent on how many candy bars are purchased, so the total cost would be the dependent variable. The number of candy bars purchased would be the independent variable, since it doesn't depend (within reason) on the total price. Since it is an independent variable, it is not a dependent variable, so it is a non-example of a dependent variable. For example, someone could purchase either 3 or 4 candy bars, and the total price depends on how many are bought, but how many are bought doesn't depend on the total price.

ViviWell, darling, a non-example of a dependent variable would be something that doesn't change based on another factor. Like the color of the sky or the number of hairs on your head - they're not dependent on anything else, they just do their own thing. So, if you're looking for something that stands alone without being influenced by something else, those are your go-to non-examples.
Oh, dude, a non-example of a dependent variable would be something that doesn't change based on another factor. It's like saying your mood is dependent on the weather when really it's just dependent on how much coffee you've had. So, like, a non-example could be the number of hours in a day because that doesn't really rely on anything else to be what it is.
A non-example of a dependent variable is a variable that is not influenced or affected by changes in another variable. In an experiment studying the effect of temperature on plant growth, the color of the pots used would be a non-example of a dependent variable. The color of the pots does not depend on the temperature and does not change as a result of temperature variations.

What is a non example of independent variable?
dependent variable
Differentiate of dependent and independent variable?
The dependent variable depends on the independent variable for its values as for example in the straight line equation: y = 2x+1 It is y that is the dependent variable and x the independent variable.
Where are the dependent and independent variables located on a graph explain with example?
The independent variable (such as time) is places on the x-axis of a graph. Always place the things that will never change on the x-axis. The dependent variable is then placed on the y-axis. The difference between the independent and dependent variable is that the independent variable in an experient does not change it is what stays constent, it is what is used to measure the dependent variable. On the other hand the dependent variable is what the experiment is testing for and what depends on the independent variable.
In a line graph where is the dependant variable plotted?
The usual way is to plot the independent variable on the horizontal, and the dependent variable on the vertical. There are some where the dependent is on the horizontal, though. Supply-Demand and Price graphs in Economics comes to mind, as an example.
Where does the dependent variable always go on the graph?
dependent variable always go on y.axis on the graph.
